Zaccagnini, Abruzzo
Wine’s history in Abruzzo goes back a long way in time. From Ovidio to Polibio, in fact, there are many authoritative testimonies of the existence of a wine tradition already in ancient times. Concentrated until the Renaissance in the province of L’Aquila, Abruzzo's viticulture experienced a phase of rapid transformation, especially in the period of unification.
Since the mid-twentieth century, wine production in Abruzzo has become increasingly specialised and concentrated in areas with a high wine-growing vocation, which thanks to good ventilation and large temperature ranges between day and night, ensure an ideal microclimate for the production of high quality grapes.
